It was starting to sprinkle as we left the house, but we went anyway.
We hadn't been to the river yet this year. And it was a good time to get out of the house for some fresh air and a Sabbath afternoon walk.
I didn't think we'd stay to long. It looked like rain on the way and it was windy and not real warm.
Austin thought ahead and brought our kite! This kite has some history. A special friend of ours use to fly it with Travis and Tyler when they were young. The three of them would head to his car after church and fly it in the parking lot. When we moved away almost sixteen years ago he gave it to the boys.
Right after this, the wind started whipping the kite around visciously until the string snapped. Duane had to make a run for it as the kite blew and tumbled down toward the river. Fortunately he was able to rescue our precious keepsake.
I love looking at all the rocks; the various shapes, sizes and colors are fascinating.
Man's best friend. Actually you'll see evidence in a moment that this dog happens to be "woman's" best friend;)
And she's off! Gotta go see "mom"! Silly girl. One more. I like it, they're both smiling.
Time to head home. It was windy and chilly, but I'm glad we went anyway.
